When we got that stop on 4th to seal the game I just screamed and threw my arms straight into the air for like 3 minutes lol.  It felt like everything we had to sit through last year just got lifted off of me and was left way in the past.

It’s been a long time since I felt as confident about the Jags winning a game as I did about the Texans and the Titans. I’m just a nutty fan but everything that built up to the moment it just felt like it was finally our time.  Everything is about to be more fun as a Jags fan now. The seasons. The post-seasons. The off-season. The social media content we get. There is a window of opportunity now I’m not sure I’ve ever experienced as a Jags fan.

I definitely feel like the team, the organization as a whole and the fans finally have the proverbial monkey off our back now that we have have accomplished everything we have this season. All of the things I listed were weighing us all down and the wins against the tinhorns and tacks specifically were instrumental in setting us free from all of it.

Having Pederson come in and completely changing the culture that has been lingering for decades is huge. His winning the trust and respect of the players, especially the ones who were here for the [BLEEP] show last season, is more important than anything else because without that we don't have the men willing to sacrifice and be selfless on the field, during practice, in the gym, etc. 

If y'all haven't watched any of the pregame or post game stuff with Coach and the players I urge you to do so. These guys are seriously ALL IN in a way I have never seen before and you see it in the answers they give as well as on the field. This includes the Mic'd Up videos. It's like they're all each other's cheerleaders, biggest fans and biggest supporters. It really is fantastic. 

Maybe Dewey was instrumental in helping build this because we all know by now how much he loves the team and the game, and other players have mentioned him as being a big presence in the locker room and on the sidelines and field.
